Biography
After completing her PhD in organic chemistry (co-shared between Canada and France), dealing with fluorescent glycodendrimers and their biological applications, Virginie worked for 10 years in academic research, including 5 years in France (ENS Lyon, CBM Orléans) as research engineer and 5 years in Asia (Seoul, South Korea, and Fukuoka, Japan) as a senior researcher. Her field of research was organic chemistry and photophysics for applications spanning from materials (optoelectronic / organic electronic) to bioimaging.
In 2022 she graduated from CEIPI (Center for Intellectual Property Studies, Strasbourg) and joined Office Freylinger in May 2022 as a patent engineer.
